International Missing Persons Wiki

Marjorie "Marjory" West was a child who disappeared when her eleven-year-old sister, Dorothea left Marjorie alone while she spoke to their mother on May 8, 1938. At first, it was believed that Marjorie had merely wandered into the woods and became lost.

Case[]

A taxi driver in Thomas, West Virginia claimed that he saw a weeping girl matching Marjorie's description and wearing similar clothes riding in a dark green sedan with an unidentified man in his thirties. The driver said that the individual said the girl was his daughter and asked the taxi driver where the nearest motel was located.

The taxi driver identified Marjorie as the man's passenger several days later. A man matching the description of the unidentified individual refueled at a gas station outside of Thomas and an attendant reported seeing a bundle wrapped in a grey blanket in the backseat of the car. The man's identity, along with the whereabouts of Marjorie, remains a mystery.
